The supplement business is making lots of money on us. Should they be? Are there any supllements that can make us better runners. It's through this conversation that I hope to answer these questions and more about supplements.

Resources:

Sweat Rate Test - 

1. Urinate

2. Weigh yourself without clothes and note weight.

3. Run for 1 hour at goal race pace.

4. Note how many fluid ounces you drink during the run.

5. Dry off after running.

6. Weigh yourself again without close and note weight.

7. Convert pre-run and post-run weight to ounces.

8. Subtract post-run weight from pre-run and add  back any fluid ounces drank during the run. The answer is the amount of fluid loss you had during exercise and what needs to be replaced (keeping in mind you can only comfortably drink 20-30 ounces of fluids per hour). If there is an a fluid loss higher than what can be replaced during the hour, that amount must be drank post run to rehydrate.
